TWO; CHEEKY PANTIES
Why? because cheeky undies flatter the booty, and makes sure it celebrateS your curves unlike a g-string.
ONE; OVERSIZED SWEATER
Now there are certain types you want to stay away from but sweaters are really great for that cozy feel, coffee in hand type of vibe! Stick with pull overs, knit, and non-bright colors.
FIVE; THIGH HIGH SOCKS/ STOCKINGS
Socks are amazing when you have a more casual outfit that you want to wear, and the socks definitely add to the cozy vibe

DON'TS
ONE; Jerseys
Okay, I know there are some women who really want to bring their mans jersey to the party but let me get down and real for a second. Men’s jerseys don’t fit us right. They are unflattering, boxy, and just plain huge on us! If you HAVE to go with something that shows off his team or your team, look for a t-shirt, or panties that rep the team.
TWO; Baby-dolls
This type of lingerie covers us in ways that are extremely unflattering. Of course there are always exceptions, but for the most part, baby-dolls make us look larger than we are, and hide our curves instead of flaunt them. Beware the babydoll.
THREE; BRIGHT COLORS
Bright colors: PLEASE for the love of all that is holy, do not bring anything in that is bright hot pink, neon orange, yellow, green, turquoise etc. These colors first of all will take over the entire show and hide what we are trying to showcase… YOU. Secondly, these colors throw off my cameras sensor, which will distort the color and image, and it’s just not good. We want to highlight and flatter you. Leave the bright colors at home.
FOUR; PROPS
This is a touchy one. There are some exceptions, but for the most part, we do not shoot with props. We don’t want it to borderline cheesy. This experience is about YOU. That’s the only prop you need. That being said, if you had an idea in mind of a prop you want to bring, email me about it first and I’ll let you know what I think.
FIVE; PEARLS
PEARLS ARE BEAUTIFUL IN AN EVERYDAY STYLE KIND OF WAY. IN PHOTOS? NOT SO MUCH. THEY REALLY DATE YOUR IMAGES, AND DEFINITELY THROW OFF THE VIBE OF ANY OUTFIT. LEAVE THE PEARLS AT HOME.
